                      US in Prime Position to View Eclipse

   by Reuters

   Night owls and early risers in North America will be able to watch a
   rare celestial
   show on Tuesday as Earth's shadow falls across the moon,
   shifting its color from bright orange to blood red to brown,
   depending on local weather conditions.
   The lunar eclipse will unfold over three hours beginning at 1:58 a.m.
   EDT when the
   moon begins moving into Earth's shadow. A little more than an hour
   later, the moon will be fully eclipsed and shrouded in a red glow.
